About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world and meet interesting people, make music, eat and drink well, enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Charlottesville, VA with my husband where we love cooking, hiking in the Shendandoah, craft beer, music, board games and other such nerdery, and of course traveling! I've lived in Ireland, France, and have traveled all around Europe and a little bit of North Africa and love meeting new and interesting people.

PHILOSOPHY

To live deliberately and well, surrounded by people and things that push me to expand the boundaries of my best self.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to host when I can and always try to bring or cook food for whoever hosts me!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Amazing. I've met some excellent people in my couchsurfing tour of Spain, several of those couches impromptus and have hosted a variety of very nice people from Germany,Canada, and France. Hope to keep the good times going!

Interests

I love music. I sing, occasionally play the piano and sometimes brutalize the guitar. I like discussing languages, religion, philosophy, politics and economics. I'm a nerd but I do like to have a good time. I like walking, hiking, biking and especially dancing.
